Thanks for posting the Chocolate pics! They are beautiful. In real life they are rich warm colored birds, in a flock they really are something to see!

I am still swooning thinking about them! I can't wait to see some out on the market. Thank you for the announcement! You made my day and best wishes to your friend working with them. I hope they're a fertile bunch, they have a lot of work to do

Oh heck YYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

It's great to hear someone has imported the chocolates. I look forward to seeing more photos.

Are these chickens bantam or standard size?

Bantams according to the OP.

Are you saying this is a LF Chocolate Orp? It was my understanding that Chocolates were only available in bantum?

They sorta remind me of this pic of my Orps.
Brown maybe? Chocolate never!!!!
Mine only stayed this color for half the year though.

What's the difference between the US and UK orps? and i don't understand why if someone happens to visit the UK they can't arrange to get eggs off a UK breeder?...because chocolate orps are quite cheap here and the hype over them had gone down quite a bit so for 6 eggs its around £20 where as it was 140 before
